  3. Mine was boarding a plane recently and had extra “slack” leftover from the seat belt!

  7. Hello ladies. I’m newly sleeved for a month now. What meds do you all take during that time of the month?

  10. Thank you! Maybe he will be clear when I see him next time as well. I have been feeling so good that I do need to remember that I need a lot of internal healing as well.
  11. Thanks guys. Walking is something I love to do and it helps clear my head and I haven’t been able to walk like I used to. I recently moved before my surgery into an area with lots of trails and a lot of people walk around the neighborhood. I walked while on my preop liquid diet as well. After my surgery I weighed 301(fluids) and today my weight was 283. He said none of my walking attributed to my weight loss as as the diet is the only thing that will allow me to lose weight and that I don’t need to walk. Admittedly, I was stunned so he could have meant during the initial healing stages only. He just was not impressed by my walking. He actually looked a little upset as if I’m focusing on just walking but that’s not the case. Afterwards he told me my incisions look great and I meet with the nutritionist in six weeks.

  16. Thank you. I left feeling pretty bummed.
  17. Today was my follow up appointment with my Dr. I had my sleeve on 12/15. I told my dr that I’ve been walking two miles a day for the past week. He was not impressed. He said walking will not help me loose weight; sticking to the diet will. I was kind of deflated because I thought walking was a good thing. ?
  18. I’m doing pretty good. The first night was very painful. I was discharged on Wednesday. I’ve been up moving and I think that’s helped a lot. I haven’t taken any pain medication since Wednesday night. No nausea. I did drink some smooth move tea tonight.
  19. I’m on a clear liquid diet for seven days.
  20. I had my sleeve surgery on 12/15.
  21. Omg I had my surgery on 12/15 and I got my cycle on 12/16! But I’m on a straight clear liquid diet for a week. No soft foods for me until week three. After the clear liquid diet, I’ll be able to drink protein shakes.
